A Guide to not getting scammed

Here's the baseline, you're not supposed to buy currency or accounts form other games, or other servers, or different accounts, or just anything in general, but i know it'll never end, so i may as well make sure you all do it safe ...

1. Making sure you don't find scammers :

When you're buying or selling different game items or accounts, such as runescape, don't use global, global is a breeding ground fro scammers. Pathetic losers that sit there all day watching that little box, just waiting for someone to be buying runescape gold or accounts so they can spring on you and scamm you for all you have.
Instead, go to places like the forums, guild members or aeven square. Now aeven square is were i would normally do shopping if buying for a different game, as people there are newbs and really don't grasp the idea of people begin able to scamm them easily, they also believe that people are genuine on the game, and so will most likely let you go first or some other method meaning this is beneficial. And newbs are less likely to scamm you as well as they do not know how, it's a good way, and often cheap as they have no real grasp on prices, of getting items or accounts from other games.

2. Talk to them

Scammers will often show obvious symptoms if they're going to scamm, these include :

Letting the price drop without a fight
Acting innocent and stupid (''i'm no good at computers'')
Saying they've been scam me out of alot of gold (like 3m+)
If they are wearing very expensive items
Saying ''I'm not gonna scamm you''
Saying ''You can report me if i scamm''
Saying ''I talk to arvid''
Players that tell you to follow instead doff just talking in group chat

Symptoms of honest players :

Players that tend to bend to your demands
Players that will only take a certain price
Players that don't mention scamming.
Players that appear to be wearing crappy clothes and don't have much knowledge of real world trading.
Other various symptoms suggesting nervousness.
People determined to sell.

Still can't tell, check the blacklist to see if they are scammers, ask global or others, and if you still can't tell, just walk away.

3. Not sure?

Always suggest a simultaneous trade to see if they are honest, by explaining the fact that they can have endless open in a window and have the other game open in a browser, if they deny that option they will most likely scamm. There is no reason they wouldn't want to do a perfectly safe method now is there?

4. Always play in a window.

It's just common sense, it gives you the ability to check things whilst in trade to make sure you're not going to get scammed, e.g. If someone is selling you an account for say, runescape, have the name of the account already typed in, and get them to say the pass before you accept on endless, if playing in a window, u can quickly type the password din on runescape and make sure before accepting.

5. Not sure?

Just don't go throguh with it, only ever trade if you're 100% certain.

6. Get a trustworthy middleman

If you're going to be buying an endless online account, get someone you know you can trust, either a very close friend, or someone that everyone knows :

Nezlo
Avamay (Not sure if these two are middlemening again yet)
Me
Trustworthy forum members.

And if not, download endless proxy for just the trade so you can check the account while in trade using the multi-client.

7. HALVES DO NOT WORK

Never do the half, details, half method, honestly, it's a 100% scamm.

8.Don't break first.

Never give in. If you're debating on who goes first never break and go ''ok i will'', this is exactly what a scammer wants you to do, they have more patience than you do, because if this scammed doesn't work they can just do another, where as you want whatever it is you're trading, so you can snap eventually. If it comes down to you and him in a simultaneous trade, just waiting for one of you to accept on one of the trades, wait for him, never accept first, because they'll just cancel their trade, and kapow, you're scammed.

9.Get proof.

Always get proof that they have the money, or items, or account, don't just take their word for it.

10. Don't do it

Alot of the time it isn't even worth it anyway

11.Don't trust anyone

In this game, it's hard to trust anyone you don't know / can beat up in r/l. Mya divs is try to sya personasl.

12. Don't scamm.

I suppose that this guide could be reversed to be a guide of how to scamm and what to look out for, but seriously, don't scamm, it's not good, you'll get reported, and walled, and that little mark will lie on your concious forever, you know how painful it is to be scammed yourself don't you, but every time you scamm someone they have to go through the same feeling.

Well, that's all the help i can give you, it's still your choice if you want to to out and buy things , risking you money, but remember, there are always gonna be pathetic losers out there, that only care about he money in your pocket.

Earlier i got scammed again out of 10k, and as the person left the room, she actually said ''sorry'', it would seem as though this person didn't actually want to scamm, more like she had to, so please, try to resist, and try not to get scammed yourselves. And if you do get scammed, report their names, they will get punished for their crimes.
